This exceptional property at 4232 Sigmon Cove in Terrell, North Carolina, combines expansive water views, established lake access, and the opportunity to create a home tailored to your lifestyle. The proposed AR Homes residence offers an inspiring starting point rather than a fixed design.

Just bring your lake toys - this special spot is ready for instant enjoyment. Ideally situated at the junction of desirable Terrell, Sherrills Ford and Mooresville areas, this unique property offers the privacy and beauty of waterfront living while remaining convenient to shopping, dining, recreation, and everyday amenities in both **Sherrills Ford and Mooresville**. Exceptional water views, an existing dock, and the freedom to design a custom luxury home make this a rare opportunity in the Lake Norman real estate market. **This is a proposed home-and-land offering. Final pricing, plans, specifications, allowances, site-development costs, construction timing, and builder agreement will depend upon the buyer’s selections and due diligence.
